Lapalux - "Kelly Brook" (video)

No idea why 22-year-old Essex producer Laplux named this track after Playboy model and former Britain’s Got Talent host Kelly Brook, nor should I bother trying to figure out why the official video is edited together from Vincent Gallo’s The Brown Bunny, but his music seems to lie between hypnagogic evocations of soul and R&B and the Brainfeeder brand of choppy wonky hip-hop. Lapalux’s album Many Faces Out of Focus from Pictures Music has sold out of its (seriously) 50 cassette run, but it is available to download at various outlets online.
